Philips partners with SGH to establish MRI training centre in Singapore
The training center will facilitate the upskilling of radiographers in Singapore.
Philips and the Singapore General Hospital (SGH) have partnered to set up a first-of-its-kind Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Training Centre in Singapore.
Under the partnership, two SGH MRI radiographers will undergo Philips Clinical Application Training using a Train-the-Trainer approach to gain the latest, in-depth expertise in MR clinical practice.
Another training centre will also be set up in SGH as an educational hub for other radiographers from across the APAC region. SGH will host educational workshops, seminars, and training to upskill radiographers.
“This collaboration aligns with Philips’ vision of delivering better care for more people by raising the standards of care delivery. It is also part of our steady commitment to strategically work together with key health system stakeholders to improve the adoption and deepen the understanding of the latest imaging innovations in radiology,” Dr. Mark Burby, vice president of Health Systems at Philips APAC said.
